It's hard to see how these established clubs are going to accept the WRU proposals for an 8 team elite/ development league to feed the Regions.
there are going to be some big clubs missing out or sone of the best run clubs. The big historical clubs eg us swansea and neath should on results all miss out. Not sure the 8 club thing will get in which is a shame as it is needed tbh

It may suit those who want to improve and get more funding as a reduced welsh prem will raise standards and concentrate more funding between fewer teams...Theres also rules on facilities being improved etc The regions / wesh prem clubs need to have far stricter rules too on drafting squad players who are not involved in regional games that particular week..Jiffy is always on about the fact these young players are simply not playing enough games and hes right. If theyre not playing draft them out to the clubs...

So too gatlands unused squad players are often wasted throughut the 6 nations. Look at patchell played abut half an hour in 6 weeks...Heck they reckon ray grav was so mad keen on playing as a teenager hed cram in 2 or 3 junior matches a dayLOL

Thought it was 4 pro teams and the rest amateur. 
no the welsh prem pay look at some of the guys cardiff rfc have in their team or merthyr

So who funds the player's wages, £50,000 a year will scaresly fund two players let alone a squad.  Or do the WRU give them all much more than that?
stan and peter thomas prob fund the cardiff and merthyr players wages, guys like fish beck haberfield and allen are not playing for free. others rely on bar takings ticket sales and local sponsors like any club really. Don’t llandovery have like a camping site they own? Quins let the club house for functions etc
think they own the caravan park next door to tge pitch

They all get same money from WRU 78k I was told if they go over that comes out of their own pockets like sponsors or benefactors 

Llandovery rent out the land around them to caravaners so bring a lot of income from that 
Quins have functions room let for parties and in my opinion should consider renting their training ground to caravaners bring in income if rumours I heard last that their benefactor was walking away
